This is an awesome thread because I just so happen to be a horse AND car person My fiance and I are into old(er) German cars. We met at the European Vehicle Repair shop we both worked at.. Now if I could only get him more interested in horses, he would be the perfect man ;)

Not very horse friendly but we just bought Stormy (after 6 years of being without him). I plan on getting an old K series Chevy truck or an early 90's Jeep Cherokee Sport as a 'horse' vehicle.

BTW, please don't assume that I'm snobby because I have BMWs.. The value of both of those combined are probably a lot less than most of the cars posted on here.. I get stereotyped ALL the time because of a misconception that all BMWs are expensive and all owners are rich .

this might take a while. But will post one pic of each of the vehicles with a description(will be long 9 vehicles.) Each of my dad's kids get one of these vehicles we choose. I am only 16 and the oldest and choose the fastest one.
Trav

first my youngest brother's 1984 Ford Bronco 2 4x4 2.8L thrush pack, eddie baure seats, and middle console out of a 97 Ford Ranger. ya it is hooked up to that horse trailer needed to move it but had to put it in 4x4.
My other brother's 1989 Ford F350 crew cab. It is awaiting a 4x4 conversion. My biggest project. I can't wait till I get time to work on it.
my 1988 Ford F150 4x4 302 V8 automatic transmission. Has fender flares, cat delete kit, chrome bed rails, and cab fairing I can't wait till this one is running. I am gonna paint the cab fairing white to match the truck and still thinking on the fender flares.
My dad's 1986 Ford F150 4x4 302 V8. Has an automatic transmission. Has 31 10.50 R15 tires which I am gonna put on my 88 also. Has a flowmaster exhaust, chrome bed rails, and will have a headache rack but I need to install it.
My sisters 1985 Chevy G20 sportvan worth lots of money. I couldn't list all the mods me and my dad have put on this van we have had it since I was 5 years old.
Our work truck 1989 Ford F250 4x4 flatbed 351 windsor. No mods other then the flatbed, brush gaurd, and captain chairs out of a 1985 F250 super cab. It needs alot of work but it is a work truck so I don't care if it beat up. It needs a few parts to get it running.
Me and my dad's favorite project and the only thing I like more then trucks and horses: 1973 Harley Davidson XLCH 1000. Has a springer front end, newer sportster 2 up seat. And more to come on it. It needs a battery, throttle cable to run. But I want to add a front brake on it. Thats me on it.
My mom's 1997 Ford Expedition 4.6L 4x4. We might paint it but I doubt it. No mods and probably won't be any. It is running 265 75 R16 Goodyear Wrangler duratrac tires on it.
and the best for last: me and my dads pride and joy other then the Harley: 2002 Ford F250 4x4 Crew Cab V10. Has bully dog chip, banks stinger exhaust, airaid filter in the stock air box, 05 XL grille and bumper, 05 take off runing boards, spray in bed liner, slide and lock tie downs, Weather gaurd truck box, custom paint job, chrome fuel rail, dash cover, and tinted windows even the slidding rear window, with a tinted browl in the windshield.. I want to put LED lights that come on when the door opens and shine on the running boards. This has been our work truck for right now. I get this truck when my dad passes on.

My Miata Mia (yes...terribly original ;) ). Sadly one of the slowest cars currently in my family...which I am often reminded of,but I'm thinking about putting a turbo in her soon. She might have some auto-x in her future as well...She isn't too good at the whole street racing thing She does make for an absolutely excellent extra tack trunk. I have fit as many as 3 saddles in her! With the top down...hehe.
